Is that what you guys are calling propaganda? There has to be room here for people to hold beliefs that are different than yours without perceiving it as manipulation or coercion.
Some people think chocolate is better than vanilla. That's a difference of belief. There's no difference of belief between the fact that christianity has a long history of overt and covert propaganda aimed at people of all ages, especiailly children, and notably aimed at all of the things you claim to believe in about the human mind and how our beliefs are formed...and your need to minimize that for no reason whatsoever. That's just you whining again.
Yes, god is love is and has always been propaganda. John was a propagandist. This is a known known. Believe whatever looney shit you like, that won't change.
